Homework Statement
Evaluate the integral:
the integral of 9r4^r dr
Homework Equations
integral of f(x)g'(x)dx = f(x)g(x) - integral of f'(x)g(x)dx
integral of udv = uv - integral vdu
u = f(x), dv = g'(x) dx
The Attempt at a Solution
I first started by pull the 9 out to the front:
9 integral of r4^r dr
I then set u=r, du=dr, dv=4^r, v=(4^r)/ln(4)
I used the formula: integral of udv = uv - integral vdu
and got: the integral of 9r4^r dr = [(r4^r)/ln4] - the inegral of (4^r)/ln4 dr
I then pulled the 1/ln4 out of the last part and got:
the integral of 9r4^r dr = [(r4^r)/ln4] - 1/ln4[the inegral of 4^r dr]
I was also able to get the anti-derivative of the [the inegral of 4^r dr] as (1/ln(4)) 4^r
I got stuck here, i don't know how to put all of it back together, help please?
